TODAY’S COMIC: “Third Party”
I drew this comic weeks ago and I think it’s interesting that it was scheduled to post at the same time I’m considering, for the first time ever, voting for a third party candidate…
I’m kinda sick of both the Dems and the Reps. I’ve never felt this mixed up in an election before. I’ve always been able to pick a side and feel confident that it would be the better one. This election has my head spinning. How did we end up with two main candidates that are such horrible picks?
Oh yeah… one cheated her way to the nomination and the other shouted a lot.
So, yeah, I’m really seriously considering jumping off the 2-party train this time.
On to happier thoughts… like GIVING you stuff!…
Hey Patreon patrons! Here’s a list of what you got in the last month and a half…
PUBLIC:
I posted a couple sneak peek images of the creation of a portion of two comics:
“Me Naked”, “Chip Singing”
These were to give non-Patreon supporters a taste of what you $2+ patrons already get to see.
$1+ PATRONS
If you had pledged $1 or more, you got to see these 16 comics way before the rest of the world (some still haven’t been released yet):
“Skitter Day”, “Bughazi”, “Anonymous”, “Bug Rally”, “Will Smith”, “Free Stuff”, “Stop The Hate”, “Free Speech”, “Third Party”, “Sand Castle”, “Pokemon Go”, “Pokemon Oh”, “Fireflies”, “Marshmallows”, “Moon”, “List Song”
As a bonus, I also posted a short video showing me in my secret hiding place where I sometimes draw comics. All Skitter patrons got to see it:

$2+ PATRONS
If you had pledged $2 or more, you got everything the $1 patrons did PLUS you got access to the pencil art of these strips:
“Skitter Day”, “Bughazi”, “Anonymous”, “Bug Rally”, “Will Smith”, “Free Stuff”, “Stop The Hate”, “Free Speech”, “Third Party”, “Sand Castle”, “Pokemon Go”, “Pokemon Oh”, “Fireflies”, “Marshmallows”, “List Song”
The pencil art is an inexpensive way to get insight into how I draw Skitter comics. It’s like looking under the hood… or lifting the skirt… of my comics.
$5+ PATRONS
The $5 pledge is where the fun really begins.
If you had pledged $5 or more, you got everything the $2 patrons did PLUS you got access to time-lapse videos of the creation of some of the latest comics. These videos are really fun to watch. Almost hypnotic. The comics form before your eyes over the period of about 5 minutes each. There are tons of these videos already waiting for you on the Skitter Patreon page should you decide to increase your donation, but these are the 9 NEW ONES I added over the past month and a half for current $5 supporters to check out:
“WIP Video: Comcast”, “WIP Video: Buzz”, “WIP Video: Laika”, “WIP Video: Running For Office”, “WIP Video: ‘Completely Safe’ and ‘Seatbelts”, “WIP Video: Girl Legos”, “WIP Video: ‘Potty’ and ‘Adventure Awaits”,
$25 PATRONS
If you had pledged $25 or more, you got everything the $10 patrons did PLUS you got a signed digital copy of a comic of your choice to print out. Actually you got TWO comics: One for the $25 pledge level as well as one for the $10 level. See how that works?
Thanks again, everyone, for supporting Skitter! I’ll do my best to reward you with extras each month for your patronage!
